FCR Motion Technology supplies Lenze SMVector AC drives

When incorporated into a pumping system, SMVector AC drives, manufactured by Lenze and available from FCR Motion Technology , can help rural communities to save both water and energy.

Developed by Switchgear Direct in conjunction with FCR Lenze’s Australian distributor, the AC drives enable pump systems to overcome the problems of operating on a Single Wire Earth Return supply.

They closely monitor and match the delivery of water from a pump to demand, rather than operating pumps at full pressure irrespective of demand, conserving both energy and water usage.

These AC drives also have the added benefit of incorporating an integrated soft start function, where the starting current is less than the rated motor current.

In addition, the IP65 rating on SMVector drives ensures solid protection from moisture, creepy crawlies and other contaminants that can damage the controller, with a polycarbonate plastic housing providing strong UV resistant properties.
